    Who were the sons of Roisin and what did they die for? This is one of the mysteries I have not been able to figure out. Does anyone have the answers?

    Róisín Dubh (dark Rosaleen), daughter of Aodh Mór Ó Néill. Became a subject of the song Roisin Dubh and her name became a metaphor for Ireland.
